    Air Supply and Exhaust

    The air supply system provides clean, sufficient air in equal amounts to each cylinder. It filters air through an element to prevent engine damage from particles. Air cleaner housings distribute air over the filter element, sometimes using swirl, and inlet manifolds are designed to supply each cylinder with the same volume and airflow. On some engines, incoming air can be heated for cold starts before engine temperature reaches 50 degrees. Fuel injection systems also include sensors and actuators to measure and control air supply and engine speed.

    Air Supply

    Air Supply
    • The air supply system has to supply
    • Clean air
    • In sufficient quantity
    • In equal amounts to each cylinder
    • Creating swirl is desirable
    Hot/cold
    • The air supply system needs to provide
    • Warm air for cold starts
    • Temperature controlled air for normal
    running
    • Silenced air flow
    • Flame trap in the event of flash back
    Clean Air
    • Clean air is required
    • To prevent particles of dust and grit
    damaging the engine
    • Air is filtered through an element in the air
    cleaner
    • Most are micro porous paper
    • Can be oiled wire gauze or rubber
    Elements
    • Paper elements are folded to provide a large
    surface area
    • Edges are sealed with rubber
    Housings
    • Air cleaner housings have ducting to
    distribute air over full surface of element
    • Flow is sometimes made to swirl to throw
    out airborne dirt into a dust trap
    Inlet manifold
    • Inlet manifolds should be designed to give
    the same length and diameter to each
    cylinder
    • This means that all cylinders are supplied
    with the same volume
    • And air flow characteristics
    Heated Air Supply
    • On some engines the incoming air supply
    can be heated
    • This is only required when air is cold
    • If continued when engine was warm
    • Mass and air density would reduce
    • Heating stops at about 50 degrees engine
    temp
    • Air is then drawn from cold position
    Fuel Injection
    • Air supply for fuel injection have additional
    items
    • For the measurement and control of air
    supply
    • Sensors for injection ECU are included
    • Air mass, air temperature
    • Actuator for engine fast idle
    Variable Length
    • A dual intake system is fitted to many
    engines
    • These respond to high and low engine
    speeds
    • A valve opens to provide adequate air
    supply at higher engine speeds
